The desire to help others - Deepstash

The desire to help others

If you jump in too quickly or too often, you can become a target for ever-expanding requests that prevent you from meeting your bigger goals.

Develop an awareness of why people beat a path to your door. Is it because you represent the route of least resistance? If so, learn to be comfortable saying no. 

It helps others become self-reliant. Shift your perspective from deriving satisfaction from helping to teaching people how to solve their problems.
